Claudia Winkleman’s wellies from The Traitors ooze countryside chic - here’s where to get a pair
Claudia Winkleman's wellies are the perfect investment for rainy days.


Claudia Winkleman's wellies from The Traitors are a fabulous and practical investment for wet weather days.
Practical footwear really comes into its own in the colder months when everyone pulls out their best snow boots. However, given the UK weather is often rainy all year round there’s nothing quite like a classic pair of Wellington Boots to keep you dry at all times. When it comes to wellies, The Traitors host Claudia Winkleman has shown she's a big fan and she seems to have a preference for a particular brand.
Many viewers have been left in awe of Claudia Winkleman’s Traitors outfits since season 2 started and she's stepped out in a pair of tall wellington boots from Hunter in the show. Claudia Winkleman’s wellies are the £135 Hunter Original Tall Wellington Boots which are on the luxury side price-wise, however they’re a great blend of practicality and style.
They’re a classic style for the brand and come in a range of colours, although Claudia’s black ones are especially versatile and easy to pair with so many outfit options. The Hunter Original boots are crafted from natural rubber and constructed from no fewer than 28 hand-cut parts. These are assembled over three days and are then vulcanised for "superior protection" against the elements - a key factor in any Wellington Boot purchase.

Claudia Winkleman’s wellies have the Hunter Original treat pattern and a polyester lining for comfort too. She wore her black pair with a pair of black leggings tucked in and a bold fiery red jumper. The oversized knit jumper added vibrancy to her look and mirrored the texture of her equally large-knit khaki scarf. The boots were the perfect choice for venturing into the woods for the challenge in episode 9 and choosing the same colour as her leggings helped to elongate her legs.
This is a styling choice that we’ve seen at other times with Claudia Winkleman’s wellies in The Traitors. Anyone who’s already bought their pick of the best black boots but is eyeing up a pair of Hunter wellies might be tempted by the olive green version.
Claudia wore green boots that look very much like the hunter green version of the Hunter Original Tall wellies in episode 10. Whether or not these are the exact ones worn by Claudia, the hunter green wellies from Hunter are a classic earthy shade and have all the sleek style and practical details of the black ones.
